Introducing Danielle and Mark

2 THE CUSTOMER The Successful Providers

The Discovery has traditionally been seen as a man’s car. However, the positioning of the new Discovery has a new customer in its sites, Danielle – married to Mark – a mother, a high earner and probably the key family decision maker.

Danielle’s matriarchal dominance does not though, reduce the role of Mark. Mark still brings in the bacon (well, some of it), drives the car and wants something tangible and techy to brag about to his mates.

3 THE INFLUENCERS Who will be our Danielle and Mark?

Subsequently, we need to source a couple, familiar and appealing to both Danielle and Mark, with whom we can share the discovery of new Discovery.

A couple whose relationship is based on an equal share of success and profile, who compliment each other in person, yet differ enough to ensure the odd frisson of friction with frequent engaging exchanges of opinion.

Time is tight for the high-profile power couple or double-act – and preparation for the day ahead is often undertaken on the commute to work.

11 THE INFLUENCERS Danielles are doing it for themselves

A successful woman as the breadwinner of a family, or at least the most high-profile half of a couple, is these days a common and acceptable occurrence.

Put simply, successful women inspire other women and can subsequently be incredibly influential.

There also exist numerous platforms for women to talk to women – from Radio 4’s long-running Woman’s Hour, through to Grazia magazine and Mumsnet.

Format: short film – 3 minute max

Our high-profile mum packs her better-half and offspring into a new Discovery at an unearthly hour. She’s at the wheel.

It’s cold, rainy and foggy, but the family is cocooned safely and snuggly in the Discovery, as they travel in ultimate comfort to the outer-reaches of their comfort zone.

The family is on a mission to discover something new about themselves, in the form of an exciting outdoor pursuit, but their journey to that point is all about discovering and relishing the features of the new Discovery that will actively benefit them all.

See: Discovery Sport Family Adventures

16 ALTERNATIVE TREATMENT Female Friends – The Road Trip

Two high-profile female friends take to the road, minus their partners and papooses. The new Discovery may well be the perfect family vehicle, but for one weekend only, it’s their personal escape pod.

Packing out the Discovery with surfboards, wetsuits and water-sports paraphernalia – and therefore fully utilising the configurable seating of the Discovery – they head out on a road trip to Cornwall where they participate in a Surf Sistas weekend of surf instruction.

Throughout their drive they familiarise themselves with all the Ingenious features and benefits of the car.

A mix of UGC, GoPro and professionally shot footage will make up the film.
